{"product_id":"hair-on-fire-afghan-women-poets-9781949641844","title":"Hair on Fire: Afghan Women Poets","description":"\u003cb\u003eFive female Afghan poets wield language to combat the loneliness, absurdity, and claustrophobia of life in a war-torn country and its diaspora.\u003c\/b\u003e There are \"hypnotic, long beards\" tangled with mass extinctions; hateful men burning grapevines; black blindfolds; jinn in chadors; and condoms advertised every eight minutes on TV. Interspersing these are tender moments: one poet describes brushing her daughter's hair, while another imagines a tree growing at the center of a room, undisturbed by the bombs outside. In the wake of the Taliban's escalating war on Afghan women's rights, Hair on Fire is a blazing tribute to a group of exceptional poetesses and a reminder of what we lose when voices are silenced.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eCoolidge, Sarah:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cb\u003eSarah Coolidge\u003c\/b\u003e is an editor at Two Lines Press and series editor of the Calico Series.\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Two Lines Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51580267561234,"sku":"9781949641844","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_e6d96fd4-80b1-4d47-a368-ba49cebf6888.jpg?v=1756213723","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/hair-on-fire-afghan-women-poets-9781949641844","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
